About the club
Situated at the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains is the Elk River Club, home to Jack Nicklaus’s first golf course design in North Carolina. The course, which debuted in 1984, follows the natural slopes and undulations of the landscape as players traverse 1,200 feet of elevation change alongside the Elk River amidst the tranquil North Carolina pine forest. Wide driving areas reveal stunning views of the surrounding mountains, while difficult putting surfaces showcase large slopes and fast conditions, meaning accurate approaches aid in enjoying this stunning golf course.
